Very useful softwares! thanks for sharing!
I like PDF-XChange. This viewer really faster then many others. Its very easy to use. It has a really good looking interface, multiple language support, pages thumbnails, all kind “view”, work with grid, layers, zoom, comment and markup tools, print in different format, print as booklet and many others. I'm grateful for this excellent viewer.
I like PDF-XChage too. Excellent and very complete and useful interface. I would strongly recommend anyone needing to work with PDF files takes a look at the free PDF-XChange Viewer from Tracker Software - which does numerous things that the FREE version of Foxit wont - it also offers support for XFA PDF form files (as used by many Gov't depts etc) - which neither Foxit nor Nitro do.
